Get ready for a night of laughter as The Lake Country Players bring “Four Old Broads,” a comedy by Leslie Kimball, to the stage at Festival Hall in downtown Greensboro. The show runs March 20-22 at 7 each night, with a special matinee performance on March 23 at 2 p.m.

Retired burlesque queen Beatrice Shelton (Debbie McCown) is in desperate need of a vacation — a sassy seniors’ cruise through the Caribbean. But before she can set sail, she has to convince her friends – Eaddy Mae Clayton (Rusty Faulk) and Imogene Fletcher (Cindy Helms) – to join her.

Meanwhile, life at Magnolia Place Assisted Living has taken a turn for the worse ever since the sinister Nurse Pat Jones (Suzanne Vest) arrived. Imogene’s memory is suddenly fading.

Maude Jenkins (Carol Grant) is preoccupied with her favorite soap opera and planning her own funeral, and retired Elvis impersonator Sam Smith (Greg Tantum) seems more interested in wooing every woman in the building than anything else.

As the ladies start to suspect something fishy is going on, a hilarious mystery unfolds.

Determined to uncover the truth, Imogene goes undercover, and Maude enters the Miss Magnolia Senior Citizen Pageant to throw Nurse Pat off their trail. If they can outsmart the villain and solve the puzzle, they just might make it to their dream cruise after all.

Rounding out the talented cast are Kathy Wardlaw as Ruby Sue, Sherry Shutze as Luralee, Gail Wilkes and Heath Burton as Alexia and Carlton, with Erin McCurry as understudy and Bingo player.

Directed by Mo Brower, this production promises an unforgettable night of humor and heart.
